Generated code cannot compile for the iPhone (SDK 2.1)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Code generated using this project cannot compile on the iPhone because 
NSCalendarDate is 
deprecated and does not exist in the SDK. 

The SDK docs state: For calendrical calculations, you should use suitable 
combinations of 
NSCalendar, NSDate, and NSDateComponents, as described in Calendars in Dates 
and Times 
Programming Topics for Cocoa.

The NSCalendarDate ISO8601 category is really overkill besides. The xsd:dateTime
format is a tiny subset of the general ISO8601 format.
http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#isoformats

The easiest solution to this issue is to remove the NSCalendarDate category, 
switch
the type for xsd:dateTime to NSDate, and do something along these lines in
USAdditions (this is untested because I'm having other troubles getting this 
tool to
work).

@implementation NSDate (USAdditions)

static NSDateFormatter *kUSdateFormat = @"uuuu-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss";

- (NSString *)serializedFormUsingElementName:(NSString *)elName
{
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dateFormatter setDateFormat:kUSdateFormat];
    [dateFormatter setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:0]];
    NSString *result = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"<%@>%@Z</%@>", elName,
[dateFormatter stringFromDate:self], elName];
    [dateFormatter release];
    return result;
}

+ (NSDate *)deserializeNode:(xmlNodePtr)cur
{
    NSDateFormatter *dateFormatter = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
    [dateFormatter setDateFormat:kUSdateFormat];

    NSMutableString *dateString = [[NSString deserializeNode:cur] mutableCopy];
    NSTimeZone *timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:0];
    if ([dateString characterAtIndex:[dateString length] - 1] == 'Z')
    {
        [dateString deleteCharactersInRange:NSMakeRange([dateString length] - 1, 1)];
    }
    else
    {
        NSString *offsetString = [dateString substringFromIndex:[dateString length] - 6];
        unichar sign = [offsetString characterAtIndex:0];
        if (sign == '+' || sign == '-')
        {
            NSInteger hours = [[offsetString substringToIndex:3] integerValue];
            NSInteger minutes = [[offsetString substringFromIndex:5] integerValue];
            NSInteger offsetSeconds = (hours * 60 + minutes) * 60;
            timeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT:offsetSeconds];
            [dateString deleteCharactersInRange:NSMakeRange([dateString length] - 6, 6)];
        }
        else
        {
            // There's no timezone, which is illegal, but we'll assume UTC.
        }
    }

    [dateFormatter setTimeZone:timeZone];
    NSDate *result = [isoDateFormatter dateFromString:dateString];
    [dateFormatter release];
    return result;
}

I have fixed this, but cannot find out how to contact the project owner to join 
the project to upload the fixes.  If 
you know how, let me know...

Check out the iPhone branch.
Thanks to faupel, it now works.
There are still wsdls that fail the parsing but I'm working on it.
